Abstract
The introduction of the phenyl substituent at the benzyl C atom of the arene, π-coordinated by the Cr atom, does not cause any significant changes in the geometry of the binuclear complex which contains a direct Pd-Cr bond [average length 2.768(1) A for the two independent molecules]. The Pd-C benzyl , Pd-C ipso and C benzyl -C ipso bond lengths [averages 2. 138(3), 2.547(2) and 1.452(3) A, respectively] and other geometric features indicate that the title compound may be treated as a superposition of two canonical structures, one of which implies π coordination of the Pd atom by the exocylic C benzyl -C ipso bond whereas the second involves only Pd-C benzyl σ bonding
